An M2/M5 Duality from the Giant Graviton Expansion
Heng-Yu Chen, Nick Dorey, Sanefumi Moriyama +2
We conjecture a precise relation between the superconformal indices of two theories defined in different spacetime dimensions. The first is the three-dimensional ABJM theory descri…
Giant Gravitons, Fermionic Forms and Vertex Algebras
Nick Dorey, Paul Luis Roehl
We investigate the mathematical and physical content of the giant graviton expansion of three-dimensional superconformal field theories in a simplifying limit. We u…
Giant Gravitons and Volume Minimisation
Heng-Yu Chen, Nick Dorey, Sanefumi Moriyama +2
We establish a precise correspondence between the giant graviton expansion of the superconformal index of field theories in , and the master volume formalism of Gauntlett,…
Deconstruction of the Maldacena-Nunez Compactification
R. P. Andrews, N. Dorey
We demonstrate a classical equivalence between the large-N limit of the Higgsed N=1* SUSY U(N) Yang-Mills theory and the Maldacena-Nunez twisted compactification of a six dimension…
